Selecting Random uTorrent port?

Question

Hey guys quick question.

When in the uTorrent settings I see the button for "randomize port" and the port number changes when you click it. Now my question is how do I know which port I should use? I do not want to have to set up a static ip for port forwarding but I just wanted to know if there was a way I could see which out of my ports was the best for my uTorrent client.

It doesn't matter which port you use. The reason that button is there is because ISP's used to (and maybe still do) recognize Bittorrent traffic, and block certain ports, as well as whatever ones they found you using for such activities.
