Hi mate, there is a great site called www.portforward.com, if you plan to do some reading please check it out! It lists how to forward your ports AND you can even browse by the model of your router!

Within uTorrent, you can click on the little yellow/red exclamation mark at the bottom of the window, there you can specify the port you wish to have Utorrent communicate with!

Hope it helps, please do yourself a fav and check out that site!

Cheers.

Shouldnt have to, Utorrent just warns incase you have got a firewall blocked all ports...
If it downloads fine, and the speeds go in accordance to your line, then you shouldnt have an issue.
If you are in bridging mode, no port forwarding is required.
