Wireless Settings - Default vs User Modified?

I'm trying to find the best/optimal WiFi settings (2.4GHz + 5GHz) for the AC66R/U router.

-I currently have the "Tx power adj set to 80 (default) on both bands. Would increasing it to 100 or 125 yield better range/performance?

-Also is it best to select a set "channel bandwith" (ie 20 for 2.4GHz, 80 for 5GHz) or just leave it at AUTO?

Here are some screen caps of my current settings. Can someone look at these settings on BOTH bands and recommend any tweaking.

Thanks.

Hi,
I humbly suggest you take some time experimenting documenting every thing. One can only give general answer to a question like you are presenting. I am not there at your place. My place is different from your environment. To learn is to experiment. But when you do things, document everything, keep a log. One sure thing I don't do is I never set anything auto. I always start out with default setting on any toys I have. Once everything is working on default setting, you start messing it up and learn, LOL!
