I'm going to guess that the section should look like this: (I think network-admin should be creating this section when you use it, but I'm not certain.)

auto ath0

wireless-key <your-key>

Up to now, network-admin didn't do that. :( If I'd enter those lines in
/etc/network/interfaces, what would I do next? "/etc/init.d/networking restart"?

I believe that is correct. I'm not certain though. I'm new to Linux myself, and am running a laptop. My first method of reloading configurations is usually a reboot. As I learn more about my system that is changing, but I will probably never be in search of the ultimate up time numbers. I usually shut down once a day in the course of normal operation...
