The laws of physics are certainly against him....what is probably happening

 - Main Exchange to Local via Fiber using either RSU or RIM technology
 - Then an open wire line re-generator somewhere on the telephone poles
before being delivered straight to the user's premises.
.... digital all the way
P.S. RIMs and line re-generators are normally buried in the cable ducts.

Was that 76 kilometers back to the C.O.  I would guess that the customers
modem is lying to him.  If he's getting a true 50K connection at this
distance you should figure out how and quick.  Finding out he is overcoming
the laws of physics could prove quite profitable.  Maybe even a Nobel prize
for Science.
