fairly new but not completely green! Have a couple ? I can't find the answer to

okay well I'll start by saying hello to everyone, thanks for creating an easy to understand guide that everybody can can follow! I have a few different questions about a few different things I hope that a couple of you could touch base on them and give me a clue!!  He he
1.  I am currently running 14 asic Sapphire's 2-10 port hubs but if I put any more than six in one hub it just quits also if i install any more than 14 cgminer just stops? I'm stumped!
2. when I run the start.bat file in cgminer 3.8.5 at a speed of 850 megahertz my gridseed pulls 10-11 G's but it does not accept any shares?  How do I over clock effectively?  thanks everyone for your time and patience!   PeteyB

1. Your hub probably doesn't supply enough power for more than six of them.
2. Erm.... No one uses Gridseeds to mine bitcoin, you know.

And yeah, to overclock a 5-chip gridseed you need to solder resistors (voltmod).

okay so is it possible that I could use a different adapter that provides more volts to power all 10 asics instead of 6? Also can i mine Aurora coin through the script side of my gridseed? I've been mine in Aurora coin for a couple days now it says I have thousands of shares and I have so many coins but at the bottom it says I have zero confirmed and zero unconfirmed, am I doing something wrong?  also one more quick question is it normal to only be able to run 14 asic saffires on cgminer? if I install any more than 14 it just goes dead.

You can mine auroracoin with your gridseed, but not with your other sapphire USB miners. Yes, you can get a better USB hub.

thanks for the info, I have been mining Aurora coin with my gridseed for a couple days it says I have thousands of shares and over five aurora coins but at the bottom it says 0 confirmed and 0 unconfirmed? Then I noticed it said payments are only made after 100 confirmations, do you have any idea how long it takes for 100 confirmations?

I would be more inclined t say a new power supply if it's almost 50% of your asics...

What pool are you on? A block is 5 minutes, so it would take 500 minutes for 100 confirmations. And that is a little less than 10 hours.
