bandwidth refers to how much data can be sent at one time.

think of your wireless connection as a pipe. If you have low bandwidth, you have a narrow pipe, and it takes a long time to get a lot of data through the pipe. Pictures and video take a lot of data, you can still send them on a low badwidth connection, but it will take longer.
if you have higher bandwidth, you have a wider pipe to send data through. your pics and video can go through much faster.

it has nothing to do with distance. you can send data any distance with any size bandwidth, it just takes longer with low bandwidth.

A measure of the capacity of a communications channel. The higher a channel's bandwidth, the more information it can carry.
