Unless your remote has a web browser on it, an embedded WiFi module is going to be complete overkill.
These RFM12B RF modules have been pretty awesome. On my test setup, I haven't been able to get a bad packet even from the basement of one corner of the house to the top opposite corner. Low power and more than adequate data rate for a good multipurpose remote plus a simple mesh or P2P network. I'll just add a module to my wired embedded ethernet board to report node data over the HTTP server.
