Router can connect to home Wi-Fi but not iPhone hotspot. I read that it may help to change to wpa2 but i can’t find this option.  
Can someone help me?

Can your other devices connect to the iPhone hotspot?

Do you want to change the iPhone hotspot or MT3000 to WPA2? Repeater will connect as per the hotspot encryption of the parent Wi-Fi, no need to set it manually.
