Well next time definitely bring more food! Beef jerky and granola bars.

In my testing the narrower channels just made things slower. I was testing in a 
pristine area where there was no other 5.8GHz going on. From what I hear if the 
environment had been polluted performance might have actually gone up with the 
narrower channels.
