By all means, upgrade that wire. The thicker the better. And of course use all gold contacts for dramatically improved yet natural and binarily correct digital clarity.

Networks are like highway systems in that they're upgraded in phases.
A buddy who works on local campus nets has mentioned dorms are their largest P2P headache customers. Upgrading the connections just upgrades their management issues. Without expensive equipment, swapping tends to fill the available bandwidth. Sounds like your dorm is using poor-man's throttling.
