I have used the Asynclabs WiFi shield which i found to be excellent. Have a look whats available in the shop.

This design uses a MRF24WB0MA chip to handle the wiFi connection. You can download the library for the shield and the schematic  from here.  http://ruggedcircuits.com/html/yellowjacket.html Also the asynclabs is still having a website where you can find the software libraries and some examples.

This project is a simple web server displaying a single webpage using the asynclabs shield and an arduino. Here is an example of the same hardware collecting the weather from a server at LAX airport in Los Angeles USA and displaying it via the serial interface. The same can be done with local METAR data from many airports in the world.
