Just communicate ahead of time. When asking for a port, also include how much you can pay.
You cant upset/disappoint your porter if they know how much they will get if they accept

This, say how much you are donating. Most people will do it anyways. It's just nice knowing up front. I try to port if I'm not busy with a camp or doing something important. I usually don't care what anyone tips. It's the thought that counts. If someone can only afford 5pp then I'm fine with that.
I don't really adhere to a pp per level guideline, although that's probably not a bad way to look at it. Sometimes I get 50pp sometimes I get 5 or 10pp. It all adds up and it's just mana and a little bit of time.
Tip what you can, depending on the circumstance. If the porter has to run to you and port you somewhere I would tip a little more. But if you're waiting at the rings/spires it's a lot more convenient.
I had a guy decked out in what looked like silver plate, with a yak and I had to run across WK to pick him up, port him to CT and see invis/invis him, guide him out of CT so he could get to the Feerrott and he gave me 5pp. Needless to say I wont port this person again.
So don't stiff someone who has to go out of their way, but don't break your bank trying to get across Norrath.
