Selecting "choose random ports" is really not worth it and can be a problem depending on your setup.

You should choose a port from the 49152?65534 range.
You should not use a port in the port range of 6881?6999.
See Port is Blacklisted

Do you have a router? If so, what is the make and model?
What is your software firewall make and version?
What is your bittorrent client? uTorrent, Bittorrent etc
What operating system? Windows, Mac etc
