fwiw, all my tests have been with transferring big files over my LAN (from a
PC wired to the router via a gigabit port) -- I would expect faster
transfers with N as compared to G (which I am indeed getting) -- and I also
would expect faster transfers with 300Mbit in 5GHz as compared to 130Mbit in
2.4GHz (which I'm not getting) -- so I'm hoping to figure out how to get
that 300Mbit/5GHz connection to transfer faster...

Any improvement of one over the other would only be visible with a faster
network in front of the router. I haven't really noticed any improvement
transfering between computers, but most of my work is done over the
network.
The internet infrastructure in the Middle East is primative and slow, so
that would be a bottleneck and limit any experience over, say, a
connection in New York.
But still, even between machines, I haven't had any great improvements.
This leaves me wondering if there is another bottleneck I'm not aware of.
