What's the optimal distance for wifi

Random query. I download reasonably large files to my phone over wifi (audiobooks, the usually clock in at 150-250MB). I can place my phone anywhere from (literally) on the wifi router to across the room, ~4-5 meters away. I was wondering if there was an "optimal" distance (for speed) to place the phone while downloading?

I don't think it will make a huge difference, as the server at the other end will always be the bottleneck, but thought I'd ask.

AC over 5GHz if it makes a difference. It's a Nighthawk router with 3 antennae.
