@PeterCooperJr. You're right, that's the new feature that I didn't know about, so I edited my answer.

First, you will need to find out an IP adresses of pools e.g. from [this list](http://pastehtml.com/view/c7rf4x1gc.rtxt), but most likely it has inaccuracies. Another option is to connect to [Hub Nodes](http://blockchain.info/hub-nodes).

**Bitcoind**

Create bitcoin.conf file in [required](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Bitcoin.conf_Configuration_File) directory with rpc connection commands

```
rpcuser=youruser
rpcpassword=yourpw

```

and [addnode commands](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Command-line_arguments) e.g.

```
addnode=69.164.218.197
addnode=10.0.0.2:8333

```

and then run bitcoind. To verify that bitcoind is connected to specified nodes open command prompt or terminal, navigate to bicoind's folder and then run [the command](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_Calls_list):

```
bitcoind getpeerinfo

```

Sending bitcoin transaction by using bitcoind server will send transactions directly to the specified nodes.

**Bitcoin-qt**

When opened will use the same bitcoin.conf file. To verify that it's connected to specified nodes click

Help -> Debug Window -> Console and type getpeerinfo
