No. The whole point of the link is to use the wext driver instead of the
default nl80211 so use -Dwext. Also they have bypassed the
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file and coded the SSID and
password directly, so try:
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -c <(wpa_passphrase "ESSID" "PASSWORD") -i
wlp36s0f3u3
or, perhaps:
wpa_supplicant -i wlp36s0f3u3 -Dwext -c
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -B
Note I've never done any of this before myself but I've been researching
it a bit recently for other reasons
