If you want to add wi-fi to a project,  take a look at the  ESP8266 wifi system-on-a chip.  It has a wifi transceiver and a 32 bit processor on a single chip.  People have been getting 300 meter range with a PCB antenna.   There is now a GCC compiler for it...  lots of work going on here:  esp8266.com  
It loads the firmware from a serial EEPROM.  There are small PCBs available for around $5 on Ebay.  Standard firmware implements serial to wi-fi.
