1Mb is the speed it dropps dwn to AFTER you download 800MB of data, still OK for playing WoW though the upload will also drop to 128Kb which might be pushed via WoW.

13Gb should be doable overnight on a 4Mb connection and if you start it at 9pm you shouldn;t get STM'd unless you;re in one of the new trial areas. Also the 485Kbps (bits) is probably 485KBps (bytes) which is about right for a 4Mbps service.
