− Despite the considerable differences between Clan and [[ComStar]] HPG protocols and years spent by ComStar's programmers trawling through centuries of kludged-together code updates and patches, nothing was found. Even newly manufactured cores showed the exact same symptoms before burning out. ComStar, whose primary reason for existence was the operation and maintenance of the HPG network, threw everything they had at the problem, but save for restoring the HPG on [[Wyatt]] in [[3135]], and [[Millungera]] in [[3137]] (temporarily in the latter case), nothing worked. Later findings by Harwell proved that his successes in reactivating HPGs could not be easily duplicated, as each station would need to find a unique frequency. This threatened ComStar with irrelevancy, bankruptcy and total collapse.<ref name=ER3145-12/><ref>''A Bonfire of Worlds'' ch. 10</ref> + Despite the considerable differences between Clan and [[ComStar]] HPG protocols and years spent by ComStar's programmers trawling through centuries of kludged-together code updates and patches nothing was found.

Republic intelligence at one point stated that some HPG stations had effected "crude repairs" in the aftermath of the attacks,<ref name=GW14/> but from the context this apparently refers to secondary equipment that was damaged by sabotage or force of arms, and not to HPG cores.
