He must be syncing at the slowest possible DSL speed his ISP provides (1.5Mbps/768Kbps). Him getting 13Mbps (1586Kbytes/s) off a 7Mbps DSL connection, which nearly double his advertised speed, also seems highly implausible.
I must have been really tired. Also, 896kb/s is lower than 1586kb/s.

I apologize for brainfail.
