Though location manager settings can of course make a difference, there should in principle be no difference between invoking "Connect..." from the control strip and doing it after opening the Remote Access panel. Thus they ought to eiher both work or fail. Since connecting from the Remote Access control panel works correctly, I believe your settings should be ok. Maybe something got corrupted in the control strip. I would try trashing the Control Strip Preferences file and do the usual maintenance stuff (zapping the pram, rebuilding the desktop) to see if it helps.
