No wifi on Killer Wireless-n/a/ac 1525

Hello ! First, sorry for my maybe bad English.

I'm making this thread under Windows, because I can't make it without wifi

I got a new laptop : An MSI GS60-2QE-040xfr with a networking card called "Atheros Killer Wireless-n 1525", which isn't working at all (Doesn't seems detected on ifconfig, but is detected on lspci.)

I found some answers (And asked on IRC) : https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=196510 and https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=196519

Problem : I don't understand what I need to do to make it work (I'm not new to Linux but I've never compiled a kernel, and it ask me to "build custom kernel and then use the firmware.", and I have no idea how to do that.)

Can someone help me ?

Thanks a lot !

I'm under ArchLinux right now (Installing everything again.). I don't understand what should I do to compile the kernel with the driver
