I think the usage of wide channels requires a thoughtful look at the
needs of the users in the environment. If the users need the higher
bandwidth and/or you can space the channel coverage out so as to not
cause co-channel interference then their shouldn't be an issue. If
bandwidth isn't a concern and/or the environment has a lot of overlap
then wider channels may not be needed. I can't really comment on the DFS
as I'm not sure how 802.11n handles it.
My question is, are these high speeds really necessary? I don't watch
very closely, but I've never seen a wired user consume a high percentage
bandwidth. I'm looking at pushing for some wireless upgrades in the
coming years, but I myself can't really see a good reason to wait for
the new HT technologies.

Anyone would like to comment on the use of wide channels in 5Ghz, especially
with this (old but imho still useful info) in mind? See:

Also for environments having to deal with DFS i foresee challenges......any
comments?
Thanks and have a great new wifi year!
