Lan are usually 1 gigabit. He must have a serious connection. It's more likely he has a slow hard drive on the host or stores the data on USB2.0 connected drive.

Same for me, LAN is 1Gb, my internet connection is 5Gb.

Of course none of the devices get more than 1Gb, but that means than LAN or Internet doesn't make a difference. Especially for Steam games that get downloaded from a very close CDN proxy (probably hosted by my own provider).
