should i enable allow legacy rates?
do i need to input distance optimization?
etc?
should i disable "disassociate on low acknowledgement"?
how about other settings?
In general, you don't set (or don't change) advanced or default settings. This is the same on most wireless devices - not just OpenWrt.
Also, you may want to research what those configs do.

Yes i tried researching but the descriptions are really vague.
Most topics on this forum about those settings are only suggesting to turn them on/off when there are problems with the wifi connection.
Non-default is only advisable for special cases:
- Compatibility with very old clients. Which, really for best overall network performance, you should refuse to serve them.
- Long-distance point to point links. The "distance optimization" is only an issue at > 2km distance.

Every single setting is common across all WiFi hardware on Planet 
...I find it difficult to believe you didn't find clear descriptions with a little Google-Fu.
