    Qos On, Transmit Highest, Fat Channel Off , Roaming Medium (3) I think. Download inSSIDER, do a network search, find a channel that is less used. Set your router to that channel and on your wlan card as well

    I wouldn't try optimizing your settings unless you know what they are for. The default settings are good for the majority of users.

    Channel width adjustment depends on your router - specifically if you customized the channel width on it.

    Unless you are using FIOS or a T1,T3,OC3, your bandwidth on your ISP will fluctuate. Moreover, wifi N can have a "sweet spot" cone. You'll have to experiment with router placement.
