Have a limitted upload speed (90 ko/s) under a router

If you don't have > 1Mbit upload you can't exceed 128, but for all practical purposes round that to 120. As far as being able to upload past 75% of that... Try stopping all downloads, setting your UPLOAD LIMIT to 120, see how close uT gets. Lower it 3 KiB every 5 minutes to see where the upload graph makes a roughly horizontal line. That is your "upload when not downloading peak" and can be entered in Preferences ;) Otherwise you want to lower the upload speed such that downloading http://slackware.com/torrents/ is not impeded by uploading. You find this out by starting out low (say 50% or 45 and you can increase the upload every 2-5 minutes by 5 KiBps until you see the download plummet.

You can upload more when not downloading because as you download you are uploading data to peers requesting more :D

If you are behind a router you cannot configure and enabling UPnP in uTorrent doesn't auto-forward uTorrent's listening port...then you are permanently firewalled.

A VPN gateway might allow you to bust through the firewall...but most commercial offerings of that charge $100's/month for decent broadband speeds.

A regular proxy server probably won't help because those too are prone to being firewalled. :(
