You should choose a port in the 49152-65534 range. In Mac, I believe the setting is at Azureus%26gt;Preferences%26gt;Connection.
For the router, select your model number on this page and it will take you to a guide for Azureus and your router:

I don;t have a Mac, but I found this on firewalling at the Azureus wiki:

You can check if your port is open at Azureus%26gt;NAT Firewall Test.
If it is open, then you can check Good Settings for info on fine tuning your Azureus for best speed:

Transmission is the best for downloading torrents. Go here: http://www.transmissionbt.com/
What you could do to improve the speed is restrict upload speed to 20KBPS.
