Proximity-Based Automatic Garage Door Opener
I'd like to create automatically open my garage door via a universal garage door remote by connecting it to something with an internet connection from which it will be triggered.  Then, with Tasker, my Android phone will go to a webpage after connecting to my wifi, it'll automatically go to a webpage that that will trigger the garage door remote.

I've looked into Arduino boards with a wifi shield, but they are rather expensive for something that seems pretty simple.

I've also seen many tutorials on how to open garage doors via wifi, but it's always through a wired solution directly on to the garage door opener.  Would it be very similar to connect it to a remote and triggering it on command?

If someone can point me to a sub-$75 solution, that would be fantastic!
