I'm under the impression that if your router supports UPnP it will work with uTorrent to make sure you're good to go.
Just enable UPnP and NAT-PMP and the same in uTorrent and the router will open the required ports.
Sorry I can't check that in uTorrent since I don't run torrents at home anymore.
I'm running Tomato Firmware on my router. All it takes is a couple of check marks to enable UPnP and NAT-PMP.
Don't want to get off topic, but if you want to check out Tomato you can see if your router is supported here:
