[SOLVED] Modem power supply compatibility volts and amps

[mystic1muse]

I have a modem that had a 12 volt 1 amp power supply. Power supply died and I had a 12 volt 3 amp one that I hooked up to it and it worked OK. Is the amp difference critical such that it will affect function in long run so that I need to get a 1 amp version for long term use?

No.

As long as you use anything one amp or over you are fine.

Larger is actually a good thing in this case.
