Maybe your ISP blocks incoming ports in certain ranges, that being one of them?

You sure your "modem" isn't actually a router/modem? If so you need to forward the port from it too.
for example:
router/modem is 192.168.0.1
router is 192.168.1.1
computer with utorrent is 192.168.1.100
you're trying to forward port 55535
in router/modem (192.168.0.1) forward port 55535 to 192.168.1.1
in modem (192.168.1.1) forward port 55535 to computer (192.168.1.100)

Find out what the possible router/modem is as well as what it's default local IP address is then look it up on google or something. I've already told you the basics or what you need to do.

Use: Portforward.com and find your router.
- Then find the application you want port forward (in this case, it's uTorrent).
- Go to your routers IP (It can be 192.168.0.1/192.168.1.1 *Depends on your configuration*).
- Go to the port forwarding section on the page
- Follow the instructions listed on portforward.com
- Enter the same port you entered in the router page on the uTorrent settings
- Finally, restart your router so that the settings take place. *Usually happens automatically* (OR you have a save setting on the router settings page)
EDIT: Follow my steps exactly to ensure you get it working.
The last step may the best one to fix your problem.
EDIT No 2: IS your firewall off?

You need to follow the instructions for that on portforward.com before you can actually port forward. A static IP address is just an IP address that doesn't change, as opposed to a dynamic IP address (which is usually default) which is one that does change.

A static local IP address, not a static global IP address.

if your "modem" has more than one ethernet slot then it is a router. If so depending on the settings in your router you might need to open certain ports.

You will need to start with a static IP address and it's already assigned to you by your router.
To help you get started, head over to command prompt and type in ipconfig /all
Next you will see a bunch of numbers.
Look for your assigned IP address, DNS, and so on.
And all you need to do is type that into your network adapter and viola, static IP.

I have a "modem/router" with only one ethernet port. To make it act as what it is, a modem, I had to set it to bridge mode rather than router mode.
