There may be a few things in the docs or help file about it, but
here are the biggies:

1) Make sure you have a passcode entered for the network interface
you want to send to (so they'll accept your packets).
Interface->Properties.

2) Check the box for that interface that allows igating in the
direction(s) you wish.  Interface->Properties.

3) Enable the checkbox in Configure->Defaults for the same thing
(that's a global enable/disable).

4) It is recommended that you don't inject packets through multiple
internet connections.  It just causes dupes at the core servers and
doesn't help anyone.
