Might be worth checking what TERM is set to on the remote side. I've
had few problems using TERM=xterm. (I avoid vi, though.)
A different line of thought is that your Mac-local xterm has a different
notion of what the character set encoding is than the remote vi does.
This would only matter when non-ASCII characters are in view.
