The answer to the question who is the comforter is answerable only by the comforter himself. The Holy Spirit is not a person and has no name. It is an agency like electricity, a force that makes the will of God possible on earth. The comforter is the one Jesus promised to send. When asked by his disciples what would happen in the end he answered I will send you Elijah who will lead you into all truth. So now we know the name of the comforter. We cannot be comforted by someone who is not going through the same things we are. Elijah is the enforcer of God's will on earth but he is with us right now going through the same tribulation. That is why he can comfort us because he is also with us. If you run into Elijah you will know it right away. If you hear his voice you will recognize it right away. It is the voice of the father.
