Everything you have done sounds right.
DHT stands for Distributed Hash Table and it helps you to find seeds and peers on a torrent without the use of a tracker.
I assume the site you went to was portforward.com and that is the site to go to for forwarding issues.
Some of the guides there are out of date though, so that may be the issue.
When you forwarded the port through the Linksys, did you set a rule for both TCP and UDP?
DHT uses UDP. Before DHT, which is relatively new, only TCP had to be forwarded for uTorrent to work properly and some of the guides only have you forward TCP.
Since you are passing the uTorrent port test, it sounds like you did the exceptions in the Linksys and your firewall properly, at least for TCP.
Are you still passing the test?
