A network apparatus with fax function is provided. The network apparatus includes a fax modem, a Wide Area Network (WAN) interface, a Local Area Network (LAN) interface, and a processing unit. The fax modem receives or transmits fax data. The WAN interface is connected to an external network, the external network uses an external Internet Protocol (IP) address, and the network apparatus is addressed by using a legal IP address on the external network. The LAN interface is connected to an internal LAN, and the internal LAN uses a private IP address. The processing unit works as an operation core of the network apparatus. An electronic device connected to the internal LAN shares the legal IP address of the network apparatus on the external network through the network apparatus. Thus, the network apparatus has a fax function, and the cost is further reduced.
