no leeching is occurring. I have checked it at random times when my latency went to crap.
Hmm... might as well give the antenna thing a try. Can't hurt anything as long as it isn't physically touching the metallic interior of the AP's antenna. If you're on the same floor with the AP, the antennas should be vertical, 90 degrees to the floor, like the long part of an L. You don't have to worry about angling them towards the 90 degree direction of your computer, as the antennas are omni-directional and the propagation pattern is vertically "thick" enough so that you'll be in the 1st fresnel zone regardless, but by all means, experiment.
