I plugged out and then plugged in the power cable to restart it and none of the lights are lightning on. I've tried the reset button and it doesn't help. Does it mean that power supplier might died after plugging out the cable? The router was brand new and I've already refunded it to a store but I'm not sure if I should buy it again :P

It was likely unlucky and a faulty power supply or router. But I would recommend not buying this router now, it's a fairly old router.

I forgot password to get in settings menu, If I reset like this. I can set new password?

Yes. It will also forget all the other settings too like WiFi Name and Password! So if you have custom settings, you will have to set it all up from the beginning.
