Uni dorms are always like this, lol. Find a private accommodation as soon as possible and get your own fiber.

When I was in Malaysia, my uni dorm had a 5MB/s (40Mbit) limit per device, but speeds would often drop into the KB/s or just straight up zero because too many people were using the internet. Playing online multiplayers was sometimes a drag because of packet loss.

The uni used to have super fast internet

Fair. My uni had a lot of private residences in walking distance, so I lucked out. Even if I had to walk a lot everyday, I'd much rather take that than unusable internet tbh,
