Can't open port to uTorrent

Followed advice from portforwardguide for manual forwarding, but my router's interface menu differed slightly from the one in the guide and doesn't give a virtual server menu to enter ip addresses. I have set up a static ip and obtained server addresses and just (hopefully) need to enter the info into my router.
I am receiving torrents but my status icon hardly ever goes green and
normally stays red, sometimes straying into the red.
I would be grateful for any help you can give, thanks.
My modem is a SmartAX MT882.
