can not get incoming fax

I can send faxes out but I cannot recieve faxes in as I got the same
landline/fax number. How do you suggest I rectify the matter so I am able to
send and recieve faxesand make phones calls with the the same landline number.

It's not clear what your problem is. If your fax and your telephone are
connected to the same telephone line, both devices will detect every
incoming call. The first device to "answer" gets the call.

If you want a way to automatically distinguish incoming fax calls from
incoming voice calls and route the calls to the appropriate device,
Google for "fax switch".
